Inspired by the beautiful, detailed Paint Your Own sculptures and collectibles offered by companies such as Windstone Editions, Harmony Kingdom, Painted Ponies, the Disney Store and many others*, Andrea has decided to start her own line of collectibles! Each design is painstakingly hand-sculpted by Andrea then hand cast in durable, natural Gypsum stone material, and is ready to be painted. Let your imagination go crazy!

The first sculpt, now available, is a CoiledBaby Ball Python, curled up in a circle. Each statue measures approximately 6" x 6" x 1.5" high. Thirteen different eye variations are available (shown below), including a blank eye you can customize! Each PYO Python is $25 plus shipping costs, and includes the cast python, a protective felt pad, pair of eyes (your choice color), a product tag, painting tips, and box.

*CDs with full color example pictures, descriptions of python colorations,and "painting recipes" will also be offered for $3. This nominal charge covers the cost ofmaking the cd, and cd shipping is free with purchase of a PYO Python.
